Member story · &Element

Interview with Luke Brown.

CSSA: Why were you keen to get involved?
Luke: Cleaning is one of the UK's biggest sectors and one of the least well served by technology. The CSSA brings the people running those businesses together, so it felt like the right place to start.

CSSA: What does winning the tender mean to &Element?
Luke: It was a strong field, so it meant a lot. We see it as a long-term partnership, building a digital front door that reflects how professional this industry really is.

In their words

Why people get involved.

As someone fairly new to the cleaning industry, I’ve found CSSA the best way to get to know the people behind the businesses. Being part of the Southern Community Group puts me in the same room as operators, suppliers and trainers, and some of my best working relationships started at SCG events. People get involved because it’s a friendly, open group where you can ask a question and get an honest answer from someone who’s been doing this for twenty years. You come away with useful contacts and a real sense of being part of the industry.
